Product Benefits
- Proper light from sloped ceilings: Patented slope-ceiling down-light design directs light straight down for consistent illumination.
- Designed for steep pitches: Supports 30° to 45° slopes (7/12 to 12/12 pitch) to match challenging ceiling angles.
- Reliable electrical performance: UL Listed and C-UL/CSA certified for through-branch wiring, including damp and wet location suitability.
- Installer-friendly housing: Fully assembled with Real Nail® bar hangers, junction box knockouts, and integral T-bar mounting for faster, cleaner installs.
Key Features
- 6" Super slope housing (oval): Oblique angle housing design holds trims flush with the ceiling.

Applications
- Sloped residential ceilings requiring downlight output aimed straight down (30° to 45° slopes).
- Non-insulated ceiling cavities, or installations where insulation is kept at least 3" from the housing.
- Damp location areas, including covered exterior ceilings when paired with appropriate trims.
- Wet location installations when used with 603 trim.
- New construction joist applications and suspended ceilings using integral T-bar mounting.
Installation Tips
- Verify insulation conditions: This is a Non-IC housing—install only in non-insulated areas or maintain at least 3" clearance from insulation.
- Set the pitch correctly: Adjust the socket plate so the lamp remains perpendicular to the floor across the 30° to 45° slope range.
- Use the mounting features: Real Nail® bar hangers and Quick-Loc slot help position and lock the housing securely between joists.
- Plan wiring in advance: Use the pre-wired junction box knockouts and follow through-branch wiring limits (maximum (8) #12 AWG conductors).
- Match trim to environment: For wet locations, select the 603 trim to maintain wet location listing.
FAQ
Is the TC928 housing IC rated?
No. TC928 is a Non-IC rated housing and must be installed in non-insulated areas or with insulation spaced at least 3" from the housing.
What ceiling slopes is TC928 designed for?
TC928 is designed for 7/12 to 12/12 pitch slopes, which corresponds to 30° to 45°.
Does this housing aim light straight down on a sloped ceiling?
Yes. The slope-ceiling down-light design directs light straight down, providing proper lighting from a sloped surface.
What type of socket does the housing use?
It includes a medium base porcelain socket with a nickel-plated copper screw shell.
Is TC928 approved for damp and wet locations?
Yes. It is UL Listed and C-UL/CSA certified for through-branch wiring, damp and wet locations. Wet location listing applies when used with the 603 trim.
What is the ceiling cutout size?
The ceiling cutout is 8 7/32" x 6 9/16".
What lamps can be used and what are the wattage limits?
Lamp wattage ratings depend on trim selection, with ratings up to 150W PAR38 and other trim-dependent ratings including 75W PAR30, 85W BR30, and 75W A19.
Does the housing support through-branch wiring?
Yes. It is certified for through-branch wiring with a maximum of (8) #12 AWG branch circuit conductors (4 in, 4 out).
